Use Window color roles for app drawer and overlay scrims, and update\ndock keyboard navigation focus paths. Extend folio and convergence\nregression checks to lock in the new theme and navigation behavior.
The convergence dock is now the bottom navigation surface, including the desktop pager. Hide the legacy homescreen page indicator wrapper there so page dots and drawer affordances do not compete with the dock.
Improve touchpad scroll handling for convergence workflows while avoiding gesture conflicts.
- make SwipeArea handle angleDelta-based touchpad wheel streams and phase-less sequences safely
- wire topbar ActionDrawerOpenSurface to virtual desktop info and horizontal workspace switching logic
- add dock pager wheel switching in FavouritesBar for the vertical wheel axis environments deliver
- prevent wallpaper/home surface touchpad scroll from opening app drawer in convergence
- extend convergence invariant checks for the new gesture paths
Track KWin Overview through the activeEffects DBus property and expose the state to Folio QML. Hide the workspace frame, dock overlay, and in-containment favourites scrim while Overview is active so the effect does not show Shift shell chrome in its desktop view.
Set the state before invoking the Overview shortcut from Folio so the chrome is already gone when KWin starts composing the effect. The convergence dock invariant now guards both the hide rules and this ordering.
Use Motion wrappers and state layers across Folio and Halcyon delegates, drawers, folders, resize handles, and dock feedback. Also align Folio edit/drop highlights with theme colors instead of fixed white overlays.
Use masked Kirigami icons with explicit theme colors for shell controls so the Shift icon theme renders reliably across light and dark surfaces. Replace the status-bar battery helper with theme icon names so battery glyphs also come from org.shift.icons.
Give the app-thumbnail close affordance a symbolic white X on a dark circular backing so it remains visible over previews.
Introduce shared dock height/reveal constants and use them in folio and taskpanel to keep overlay and exclusion zone aligned. Keep dock backing stationary while only content slides, and add a CTest invariant script to prevent regressions.
Right-clicking the desktop or dock background opened the mobile
settings overlay, which is a long-press gesture for touchscreens.
In convergence mode show a popup menu instead with three items:
Desktop and Wallpaper, Add Widgets, and Configure Desktop.
Long-press still opens the settings overlay on all form factors.
Drawer is inside the homescreen, which sits behind windows.
Home button minimized everything to reach it. Render it in
a LayerTop window instead and skip the blanket minimizeAll
in the D-Bus handler.
Right-click a running task icon to pin the app to the dock
favourites bar. Pinned apps show a "Remove from Dock" action.
The dock overlay renders as a LayerTop window so context menus
and the dock itself stay above application windows. Menus use
popupType Window to avoid clipping inside the narrow dock
surface.
The click-to-dismiss overlay for the app drawer popup
covered the dock, intercepting taps on dock icons. Add a
bottom margin equal to the dock height in convergence mode
so dock icons remain interactive.
In convergence mode the app drawer appears as a sized popup
anchored above the dock near the Overview button, instead of
taking over the full screen.
- Popup has rounded background, shadow, and clipped content
- Desktop stays visible behind the popup (no scale/fade/blur)
- Click outside the popup dismisses it
- Wallpaper scrim suppressed in convergence mode
- Mobile behavior is unchanged
The task panel window reserved bottom-edge screen space even
with zero thickness and invisible content. Set its visibility
mode to auto-hide in convergence and force the dock bottom
margin to zero so the favourites bar sits flush at the screen
edge.
Halve the favourites bar from gridUnit*6 to gridUnit*3 to avoid
oversized dock on desktop screens. Hide the arrow-up icon and
disable the page-indicator tap handler since the app drawer is
now opened via the dedicated Overview button.
This refactors the homescreen state object to isolate drag & drop from
swipe states, allowing for using proper system-level drag & drop for delegate
movement. This then ports the new applet list to use it.
